Time Out: 24 Best Beer Gardens In London

Edited by Leonie Cooper Food & Drink Editor, London

Monday 20 July 2026

The best beer gardens in London. Our pick of the city’s best pubs with outdoor spaces and terraces – perfect for sun-soaked drinking. Leonie Cooper is Time Out London’s Food and Drink Editor, and once got lost in the Faltering Fullback's endearingly chaotic beer garden.

What is it? A sprawling, multi-levelled Ewok village of drinking.

Why we love it: While there are definitely bigger beer gardens to be found in the capital, the outdoor space at this well-loved, ivy-covered Finsbury Park local is certainly one of the cleverest. Faced with the difficulty of only having a small yard, the owners built upwards, not out – creating a tiered village from decking, with room on the various split levels for several tables. It’s an early-afternoon suntrap of the best kind.

Time Out tip: Go to Rowan’s when the sun goes in.

Address: 19 Perth Road, Finsbury Park, N4 3HB.

Opening hours: Mon-Thu 12pm-12am, Fri-Sat 12pm-1am, Sun 12-11.30pm.
